Inland heather and crowberry heaths, especially in coastal sandy plains. The vegetation is similar to that of the decalcified fixed dunes (2140), but the habitat type discussed here is not located on dunes (or if, then on older dunes located further from the sea). These heaths are usually quite open, sometimes with the only trees being pines and junipers. In the shrub and grass layers, heather has an important place next to the crowberry.
Such heath communities are found mainly on the islands of the Gulf of Finland.
Includes the habitat type 2121 (dry boreal heath grassland site type) according to Paal.
